Just as before, I'm good at hiding my amateur hour work. I don't even think the bench is perfectly square, but as long as the tops are on straight I can fool most people. haha

Ok, done with this section for the most part. I still have a few things to do, like add some bungee hooks so my toilet can't tip over for any reason during transit. I also need to take an iron to all the carpet to get out a couple of stubborn spots that won't lay flat and get the adhesive to...

The "plan" is to finish tomorrow. Bit of sanding, little bit of wood putty, making the hinged top and some more marine carpet came in earlier this week. The bottom will sit flush once its bolted in.

Maybe this is like one of those "Customer states...." mechanic's videos. Turns out the clunking noise was was an old AA battery rolling back and forth in the glove box.

Alright. Had some sun today so it was decent outside. Chugged a bunch of coffee and dug deep for motivation. The frame work for the remaining bench seating area & toilet cubby are pretty much done. I need to go get a bunch more sheets of 1/4 to finish walling it in and order another roll of...

Nothing major to report. Between busy work schedule, crap weather, and having a virus for a week my motivation to go out to the workshop has been pretty nill. Hoping to muster energy to go get the rest of the lumber to finish the interior seating tomorrow. We have a camp trip planned for...

The new Ranger front ends just look weird to me from certain angles. Your picture is not one of the flattering angles. I like how they look front on though.

Slow going, but going none the less. The "cooking area" is pretty much done, minus some small QoL things to do. Got the cabinet secured via L-brackets to the T-track in the frame, so its not going anywhere. Got the roller catches put on so the counter top doesn't jump up and down in transit...

The sad reality is this; most companies just buy in bulk from Chinese vendors, re-package and sell them over here. They basically do zero research, zero testing, and even further probably never even lay eyes/hands on the products and drop ship them.

This is a known issue with all modern truck trailer wiring. We could get into the technical aspect behind it, the pulse width modulation system, the resistances, etc etc This is yet another ignorant company not willing to use the proper components and/or R&D the products they sell. Sadly the...

That switch cut out...

Not much to report. Weather has been crap. Have no decided on finish yet, but went ahead and got the 16 x 36 x 3/4" project board ready. Little router work to round the edges and used a very simple setup of two heavy duty hinges. I ended up bolting them straight through the wall. I was...

Congrats on responding to a nearly 4 year old thread. Not to mention most of your replies to other older threads are just emojis. May I suggest wood working as a hobby to pass the time?

Got a little more time to do some more work today. Got the cabinet carpet on. Installed a QD fire extinguisher and got the CO detector mounted. Still working on getting the electrical back in place. The extra power strip you see is actually wired into the shore power line. So if I am where...

This is exactly what I am going to buy when I am ready to install a table. Something sturdy that can also be broken down and packed when not in use. As far as the design. Yea I see what other manufacturers are putting out so I kind of go for all the things I want, minus the bloat I don't...

So I completely re-worked the battery side. I was going to incorporate what I had and build onto it, but it was just going to be easier building from ground up. Most annoying part was building a frame around the wheel well jut at the bottom, but simple enough. I wanted to make it deeper, but...

The Philippines, master of making plastic stuff for vehicles, and butt ugly designs reigning champs. Their aftermarket truck culture is obsessed with the tonka toy look, they are like the Asian version of America's bro-truck society.

Seems like Morimoto needs to get with their Chinese suppliers and up their spec work game. I mean after all these are top shelf, premium headlights right?

Huh learn something new every day. lol
